Hump Day Hook #1

A Scifi Romance Novel from Lyrical Press
Hello! *waves* This is my first time on HDH so I hope you'll forgive any newbie mistakes. I'm taking a snippet from my sfr novel Keir to share with you. My hero has just undergone a bit of an awakening in regard to the heroine of the story.

No. Shame burned his skin. Quin was his friend, the first he had ever had. The first person to show him kindness in more years than he could count. Yet at that moment he wanted more. For the first time in remembrance, he wanted to touch and be touched in return. To hold her and have her return his embrace freely, with more than a friend’s affection. To feel her white skin under his fingertips. To brush the hair from her face as the breeze did now, and run his fingers through it.

His thoughts dishonored her gift of friendship to him.
